RecordHandleToID(), RH2ID()

Converts a record handle to a map feature ID.

id = RecordHandleToID(string record_handle)

id = RH2ID(string record_handle)

Argument	Contents
record_handle	A record handle for a map feature

An integer ID for the map feature in the current layer with the specified record handle.

Can also be called as RH2ID().
The GetPoint(), GetLine(), and GetArea() functions require IDs. IDs are not used by other GISDK functions.
RecordHandleToID() can be used to obtain the value of the ID field of a record. Used this way, it is much more efficient than GetRecordValues().

Function	Summary
IDToRecordHandle()	Converts a map feature ID to a record handle
GetRecordValues()	Reads the values of a record in a view
